"Mona Lisa" - Leonardo da Vinci's reflections. When I first saw the "Mona Lisa", the corners of her mouth raised slightly and brought out a faint smile. It is fixed in my memory. After many years, whenever I think of that faint smile, no matter how charming the smile is, it will immediately fade away. The beautiful Mona Lisa smiles slightly to the world. This slight smile makes the beauty of Mona Lisa eternal in my heart.
The Mona Lisa was born during the European Renaissance (16th century AD) and is a classic work by the famous Italian painter Leonardo da Vinci. It is said that in order to achieve the ideal effect of the work, Leonardo da Vinci designed hundreds of smiling images, and finally chose this gentle smile. For hundreds of years, this gentle smile has evoked "the feeling of love from the heart" (Qinggang Zhuoxing's words) in countless appreciators.
No matter who it is, whether it is someone who has repeatedly admired Leonardo da Vinci's "Mona Lisa" or whether it is the first time they see it, no one is not attracted by the faint, seemingly charming expression that comes out of the corner of her mouth. Touched by a careless yet knowing smile. This faint smile is like magic, making the whole picture full of the true beauty of humanity.
Mona Lisa is sitting in an armchair, leaning sideways peacefully, her chestnut curly hair covered with gauze gently hanging down her cheeks to her shoulders, her crystal clear eyes like those on the tips of leaves in the morning. The dewdrops shone with the brilliance of life, and the gently raised lips added a smile to her slightly squinting eyes, as if opening the doors and windows of her soul, revealing the tenderness and kindness deep in her heart. The plump breasts half-covered by her underwear showed her youthful fitness. The hands stretched out from the wide dark sleeves are folded naturally, so that every viewer is surrounded by her quiet and peaceful temperament.
Facing the smiling Mona Lisa, I not only felt the quiet and gentle beauty emanating from her body, but also an unspeakable mystery, like mist or gauze, that gently enveloped me. Shrouded in her charming aura.
I have to admire the genius of Leonardo da Vinci. He cleverly used the light and dark modeling method to make the whole picture exist in a strong contrast between light and dark: the long dark chestnut hair reflects the bright face. , the snow-white chest, neck and hands are exposed from the dark brown blouse, coupled with the smooth and plump skin texture shown by the moderately thick, oily and delicate paint, any appreciator will first focus on this , was deeply moved by the beauty and elegance of Mona Lisa. The soft arcs highlighted by the faint shadows at the corners of her eyes and mouth always make me feel that she wants to whisper something - this is where her charm and mystery come from.
The entire work is also unique in its handling of the picture space and background. Behind the Mona Lisa is another landscape painting. Leonardo da Vinci skillfully used perspective to make the overall picture clear: a winding path leads from near to far to the lakeside, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the sky is bright in the distance , like the morning sun rising, complementing the equally bright face of Mona Lisa, giving the subject a strong three-dimensional sense. Although "Mona Lisa" is a close-up portrait, it gives people a strong sense of space visually, and adds a touch of magic that travels through time and space to Mona Lisa's shallow smile.
Marx said: "The charm of art lies in the perfect combination of artistic language and artistic image." While marveling at the charming charm of Mona Lisa's appearance, almost all viewers are speculating on the meaning behind the picture. Content, I want to look for the rich and mysterious inner world of Mona Lisa through the corners of her eyes and lips, and uncover this mysterious veil.
Maybe she is immersed in the joy of a good harvest; maybe she will soon walk on the red carpet with her lover; maybe she just had her first child; maybe...
Someone found another answer from the background of the creation time of "Mona Lisa": the dark Middle Ages have passed forever, and the European renaissance is coming. Mona Lisa’s smile is a knowing smile that comes naturally from the bottom of her heart. It is also the smile in Leonardo da Vinci’s own heart, with greetings, joy, and hope...
The answer is colorful There is no way of knowing for sure, every viewer has their own Mona Lisa and her story behind the picture. But there is no doubt that what is conveyed by the smile, and only this faint smile can play the colorful fantasies for the viewers. Any other smile or any slight change in this smile will irreversibly change the indescribable inner mystery expressed in the "Mona Lisa", and all fantasias will also will come to an abrupt end with this change.
I have to admire Leonardo da Vinci’s keen ability to capture. He combined and presented the Mona Lisa’s appearance and inner charm through a slight smile. I think this may be what Rodin meant. It is said that "the artistic image and the inner spirit are highly unified." It is this perfect combination and unity that makes the smiling Mona Lisa move towards the eternity of time and space.
